Layoffs at IBill
 

Just heard today that there are layoffs going on at ibill.

Yep, this is indeed the truth.

where do you guys get your info from...and what kind iof layoff i was under assumption they were working with a skeleton crew as it is.....ON another note....kind of fucked up how they ignored the US clients concerning missed payouts and frist data funds that were supposed to be updated on or before march 9th in cmi :disgust :2 cents:

I know people there. I just heard that about 50 people got whacked. Not much people left there....

Hopefully this will mean a steady flow of leaked information over the next few days.

well hopefully those that were laid off will get new jobs soon.

Wow. Things have changed. A couple of years ago this kind of thread would have had a bunch of posts.

They are on the move again in other places - reckon there *may* be an update today.

Checking other shit - back later!

I know someone there that got laid off today. Not sure on the exact number (I am hearing about 35), but I believe most of the people effected are on the service side.

No matter how much you hate iBill, you have to feel bad for the people being laid off and their families. Most of the people there are good, hard working people who had nothing to do with the mess created by the people at Penthouse and IBD.

My heart goes out to the people fired today and I wish them all good luck.

Oh yeah, absolutely. I feel sorry for all the innocent people that have been caught up in this ibill mess. So many of their employees and clients. Totally fucked up.

OK... Getting these claims:

Anyone had this or is it some old bullshit?

i cant believe they had 50 people to fire

I played a game with myself. How long before a Webby, (GFY's best source of ibill info) responded. Less than 15 minutes, I owe myseld a drink. :1orglaugh

I watch for ibill news only when I see a thread. I have never seen such out right bullshit and lies than that of ibills.

who would have thought that would happen

MacDaddyPlaya is right. IBill was built up by decent, hardworking people. The people getting laid off had nothing to do with the current situation there.

Latest CMI
Maintenance 03/10/05
iBill will be conducting scheduled system maintenance on Thursday March 10, 2005. The maintenance will be completed over the course of the day and clients may experience intermittent issues with CMI, B2B and DI.

im amazed they still have clients

:321GFY

Oh shit!... another pointless response...

It was a simple question - not bullshit - forget it DF - ain't got time to waste.


Once again:

Anyone familiar with this?? Or are they talking about the gkard stuff??

i agree :disgust

I know people who gotten their two checks a month of Ibill the whole time this saga was going , and I am not talking about two times $500 either ...

they actually have been paying lots of webmasters without any problems at all :2 cents:

Are they EU webmasters?

yes they are ,

Nick - You had a update on some payout at your end yet?

If not.. will hit ya up!

I had a thought that really made me sick. Ibill states that us clients willresume payouts on march 15th. Firstdata withholds the money for six months right? Six months from Sept 15th. Tell me firstdata isnt sending that money to ibill.

If they are and ibill pays from feb 16---28th, then thats not the amount that firstdata will be sending. EG screwed again guys if this is the case.

Anyone have any info on firstdata release? I just emailed them, if I get a response i will post it

So someone PLEASE tell me I am wrong

call their 1 800 735 3362

OK... Here's some stuff re EU payouts.... It now looks like we have another name entering the scenario - Trancentrix

I ain't got no comment...

I personally dont have any dealings with Ibill at the moment ,but some other webmasters whom I have been working with still get get paid every month without any problems,

he didn't even know they were having any difficulties and was quite amazed when I showed him all the drama, :2 cents:

:winkwink: Got ya!! Was thinking if you were owed money - I have some info.

Yes that is especially what makes them a criminal organization; they commit a felony every day. Paying some webmasters with the money they stole from the rest is a crime. Many companies do this in the last few weeks of business before they close the doors, and it is illegal, not to mention immoral and only pond sucking scum would participate in it, may everyone at Ibill rot in hell.

Hell DeadFidel!! My apologies to ya man for that last post I made!! :-)

There was shit happening here and I never read your post fully - I'll have that drink with ya! :drinkup

:1orglaugh

There is a second wave of layoffs scheduled for 2:30 PM EST. Current management running that place are such complete scumbags. I still can not believe that there has not been a criminal investigation as to what went on and is going on there.

Anyone who continues to process with them is contributing to the scam and will eventually fall prey to it. The only goal of the current management team is to get THEIR money our of the company. I think this was pretty evident when they came out with the GKARD, received funds from the bank for it yet didn't pay the webmasters who converted to it.

They can no longer make payroll, so they have to fire (with minimal severence) the few loyal employees who stayed on board through it all. Its just a matter of time now.

Dam! thank goodness for that relpy...I thought I lost it there for a second. :1orglaugh

I called IBILL last week and they said US payments WERE TO BE PAID YESTERDAY
MARCH 9TH

NOT -FUCKERS!

"wErE Moving backwards please stand by"

Switched my worthless unclickable sig in honor of Webby's work.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Cheers DF!!!! :winkwink:

I'm happy I only had one sponsor using iBill and they didn't convert.

I hear that ibill EU payouts have been happening ok. But, they're a separate company.

DeadFidel - This shit is looking worse by the day. Forgetting the scammy management company (more on them later) Jason threw into iBill to allow them to take a back seat, - I get this gutty feeling a few people are in a rush at the moment and *something* is coming to a head.

March 9 was the day First Data originally were due to payout... but, if they have the sense they have shown so far, - they need to not pay iBill at this time.

Gotta say... despite the crap - I got some sympathy for the staff at iBill who have been manipulated for some time now.

See that Inteca stuff above. There are loads of EU webmasters who have not been paid. And... a separate company with anyone associated with iBill is ... well... maybe a legal entity, but going to be contaminted to hell and back with "associations" :-)

Just to let you know how bad the shit is, the people that were let go today weren't even given any severence. They will get paid through tomorrow and that is it.

People who were issued employment contracts ( an effort to keep people from leaving and taking clients with them) with guaranteed severence packages are also receiving nothing. Like every other agreement and contract these scumbags issue, they are not honoring it and never had any intention of doing so.

If you are still sending them any business at all, you are enabling iBill to continue to perpetrate fraud. STOP!!!!

are there any sponsors still using them? If so, I would love to have a list of people who I would NOT send my traffic to.. if they fucked over the US people then paid the Euro guys or vice versa I wouldn't trust my traffic to a sponsor still willing to use them because the tables can turn on anyone getting paid at any moment

Webby , the reference to the US secured system you were asking about.....is ibills new Gkard secured system where they supposedly dont get there hands on your money and it gets deposited into you account by wire or ACH....there supposed to payout on march 15th for the feb 16th-28th revenue from gkard credit card transactions ONLY !...no checks...no reserves.....so basically for most webmasters it amounts to about $1.95- 39.95 depending on if there obligatory 1 sale in that pay period re-billed or not :1orglaugh

and you believed them?

Can you share that information with us that are owed a lot of money? Or did you tell us already? Thanks.

NOT another $50 dollar check ? WTF?

What about those thousands of rebills they ran through in that same time frame ?

fuck if they didnt... they knew damn well what was going on... f em, i hope they never find a job.. they took food from my kids mouth.. to hell with them all.

Joey3001:

I can understand your feelings. But, the people working at ibill were lied to also. Big time.

Bye bye Ibill.
